under the subgroup ``-Wunsafe-buffer-usage-in-libc-call``.
- Diagnostics on chained comparisons (``a < b < c``) are now an error by default. This can be disabled with
``-Wno-error=parentheses``.
- The ``-Wshift-bool`` warning has been added to warn about shifting a boolean. (#GH28334)

- The :doc:`ThreadSafetyAnalysis` now supports ``-Wthread-safety-pointer``,
which enables warning on passing or returning pointers to guarded variables
